"Metta was a wood-fired restaurant converted to a carbon-neutral establishment in 2017. The restaurant focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions by sourcing locally, buying renewable energy, and investing in carbon-negative initiatives. It was closed during the summer and replaced by Rhodora." - Carla Vianna
"Owned by Henry Rich, Metta is also part of the collaboration with Republic of Booza for the summer pop-up." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
"After two weeks of renovations, Fort Greene’s New American restaurant Mettā reopens today. Menu changes include lower price points." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
"The first New York restaurant to join the initiative was Mettā in Brooklyn." - Lani Furbank
"The first New York restaurant to join the initiative was Mettā in Brooklyn. For owner Henry Rich, it was a no brainer. "I was sold in the first few minutes," he says. "It's a baseline ethical requirement of working with food in 2018... There's no other option." As a restaurant owner, he feels a sense of obligation to make sustainable choices. "We're making decisions that are hundreds of times more impactful because we're feeding hundreds of people. So, our decisions are multiplied," he says." - Lani Furbank
